THE AFRICA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION looks at the coming year and years ahead with articles on the inauguration of the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and on Tourism. Both trade and tourism hold great promise for expansive and long term economic growth for the people of the African continent. Long term success in these areas will open channels for expansion in technology, agriculture, science, product development, creation industries and education. With all of the challenges that we face at this time, the possibilities and promise that the future holds should encourage use all to find our best path forward and to be a positive actor in this new beginning. Look around you to find sources of encouragement. ABA presents article after article on individual and business successes throughout this issue and our past issues. Some of the stories should encourage you to continue your personal move forward. If you need more encourage, review the life stories of your heroes and our collective icons to add fuel to your personal fire to achieve success. Take the next step.
